Matt Wittman has curated a fantastic assemblage of ephemera and artifacts illustrating the role of circus in New York for over two centuries.
My current obscure object of desire, showman William Niblo, receives deserved attention in this fantastic display.
Here are directions, hours etc. DON’T MISS IT. And the catalogue is a keeper:-)
